Land of War - The Beginning is a 2020 First-Person Shooter developed by the Warsaw-based MS Games, one which was widely advertised as "the world's first first-person shooter game fully dedicated to the outbreak of WWII in Poland in September 1939..."...and it's still another Call of Duty / Medal of Honor clone.In 1939, when German forces starts advancing into Poland, the local Polish military begins forming a defensive line outside Mokra, a crucial checkpoint, to prevent the Germans from taking over the country.Piotr Kowalski, a young Polish recruit, serves as the Player Character. One of the many recruits delivered to Mokra, Kowalski was accidentally dragged into a number of espionage missions between the Polish and German spy network. The missions branches off depending on his decisions, as selected by players, branching through multiple locations and battles in real-life history.Besides shooting mooks from a first-person perspective, players as Kowalski can also commandeer tanks and armored vehicles, pilot aircrafts, and take on the roles as infantries, reconnaissance scouts, artillery men, and armored vehicle operators. | |

Storming the Beaches: For once, in a WWII-inspired game, it's the Germans are on the receiving end of this trope during the Hel Peninsula defense. Kowalski and his fellow allies are defending the beach, as marine transports filled with Krauts begin deploying on the shores, and the Allies needs to fend them off the entire mission. | |

Doppelgänger Attack: In one section Piotr is hit by a gas attack while chasing enemy soldiers through the sewers. This causes him to hallucinate enemies attacking him while also navigating through an area with real enemies. The bullets from the hallucination enemies will shake your screen and make it flash red, but won't actually damage your health. | |

| Land of War - The Beginning (Video Game) / int_79aa292e | comment |
Car Chase Shoot-Out: There's a mission in the hills where Polish troops, on a jeep, are ambushed by a heavily-armored German half-track. Kowalski, seated at the very back, needs to fend it off in an intense chase scene, by aiming for the slit where the half-track's driver would be. Hold them off long enough and the half-track will drive off a cliff. | |

Artificial Stupidity: The game's A.I. is almost non-existent. 99% of enemies simply run to a pre-scripted cover position, at which point they essentially become a fixed turret, doing nothing except shoot at you and occasionally ducking. | |

Hold the Line | |
| Land of War - The Beginning (Video Game) / int_c1105f41 | comment |
Hold the Line: Basically the game's entire first half, having the bombed-out Polish resistance defending the village of Mokra to prevent the Germans from advancing. Plenty of missions have Kowalski and his fellow soldiers setting up heavy machine-guns behind trenches and bunkers while the Germans attempts to overwhelm them through numbers. But should Kowalski make it through the first half, as he gets promoted and the game sends him to Warsaw later on it turns out the Germans managed to break through the Mokra defense anyways, turning the first half into a "Shaggy Dog" Story. Once again, Foregone Conclusion. | |
